Ez pass
Man did I start some stuff eh! No you are all correct I did agree to abide by the rules when I agreed to the terms to get the EZ Pass I am guilty as charged and It was only a warning, I have no one to blame but myself! If I had gotten a ticket instead of the warning Its my own fault. Im just saying as much as Technology is great and It makes our lives easier we are also now more accountable!! Ride Safe everyone, and yes Ill never give up my EZ Pass I love it ,BV

Always always always remember - "They" are not some mysterious force from beyond. "They" are your neighbors. They happen to work for the government, but they are normal humans. So if they want to be Big Brother then you can treat them like Big Brother. I call it Individual Accountability and it works for ALL government employees (cops most of all). If your neighbor misbehaves by working for an agency that is abusive then let him know you don't like it. Treat him like a registered sex offender: don't let your kids play with his, don't invite him over for a barbecue, don't say Hi in the grocery store. These people go to work behind security fences but they have to come out some time and we do not have to tolerate their presence as if they leave their evil deeds behind magically after work. Obviously you cannot ever break the law by being physical but you sure as hell don't have to be nice and polite to people who are turning YOUR country into a police state.
There are good cops and bad cops and we absolutely NEED the good cops but we absolutely do NOT have to tolerate the bad ones. Shunning is an age-old traditional community punishment and it WORKS.
Individual Accountability. Sure she may SEEM like a nice lady who just happens to work for the Transportation Authority but if her agency is tracking and harassing citizens then she is accountable. She chose to be a part of the Police State. Let her live with her fellow Watchers and not with the regular folks. You may think this is silly but there is no way else to stop it. You cannot hope and pray your way out of this you have to ACT.

in Illinois I heard they are planning on using ez pass to see how fast it took you to get from one toll to the next, if you get there too soon automatic speeding ticket in the mail, they already have alot of cameras at stoplights for red light tickets in the mail. BUNCH OF B.S. if you ask me.

Dang! Toll roads, what's that? I'm proud to say there are NO toll roads or bridges anywhere in my state, and we are rated #1 (Tennessee) for the best roads in the nation. I feel sorry for all that have to put up with such nonsense and the double taxation. Your tax money paid to build the road and now you must pay to drive on them.
As far as Big Brother watching, that's everywhere. Red light cameras, automatic speeding cameras, security cameras where you work, bank, and shop, credit card, ATM, and those grocery store "value card" gimmicks that track almost everything you buy, Cell phones, on star, and those little black boxes in EVERY new vehicle you buy that tells your speed and whether you were wearing your seatbelt in a crash. There's no such thing as "free" anymore. All we need are the "checkpoints" and carrying papers and we'll be like every other communist country in the world.

If I were you I would give the EZ pass back. Cause coming to a complete stop while on a MC, reaching into your pocket for the money while on a MC is much easier then slowing down to 15 mph and driving through...........
As far as big brother. He can move in with me for all I care. I'm not hiding anything and therefor don't care how much he watches me. Your all paranoid..........
